LumiKine™ Xpress hIFN-α 2.0

LumiKine™ Xpress hIFN-α 2.0 is InvivoGen’s second generation bioluminescent human interferon-alpha (hIFN-α) ELISA, using a Lucia luciferase-conjugated detection antibody. LumiKine™ Xpress hIFN-α 2.0 is an optimized ‘sandwich’ ELISA kit designed to rapidly and reliably measure the concentration of hIFN-α2 in various biological samples (cell culture supernatant, serum, and plasma).

After a single 2-hour incubation, the detection of hIFN-α2 is instantly determined using QUANTI-Luc™ Plus, a Lucia luciferase detection reagent. The bioluminescent signal is readily assessed by luminometry.

Features of LumiKine™ Xpress hIFN-α 2.0:

• Single incubation: 2 hours
• Limit of Detection: 5 pg/ml
• Specificity: hIFN-α2 (multiple subtypes can also be detected) 
• Optimized antibody pairing: The capture and detection antibodies bind to different epitopes of the cytokine
• No cross-reactivity with hIFN-β, murine (m)IFN-α2 or mIFN-β

LumiKine™ Xpress hIFN-α 2.0 is provided with a standard recombinant hIFN-α2 produced in mammalian cells, to ensure the most accurate and sensitive calibration for the measurement of unknown levels of hIFN-α.
